Stewart Granger stars as an English aristocrat who believes that all women are fortune hunters out to ensnare men. When a beautiful Continental actress visits England and proclaims that men are boring, he dismisses it as a publicity stunt. To prove that he is right, he invites her to dinner, but she discovers his plan and decides to outwit him. The two, equally dedicated to disproving the other, engage in a battle of wits, but to their horror, Cupid may well win in the end.
